On July 7, On3 updated their 2024 recruiting rankings, and an Ohio State Buckeye recruit earned top billing. Dylan Railoa is the On3 consensus top recruit in the country and the way the site determines this list is based on an algorithm based on rankings and ratings from the other top four recruiting sites.
Railoa is one of the more hyped Ohio State commits in recent memory and the quarterback from Arizona has an insanely high ceiling as illustrated from the following breakdown from On3:
“Advanced arm talent with the ability to make a wide variety of high-level throws as a high school underclassman. Looks like the top quarterback prospect and overall arm talent in the 2024 cycle early on. Physically developed at around 6-foot-3, 210 pounds. Has a natural, loose throwing motion with unique arm dexterity to deliver off-platform and from multiple arm slots. Already has a deep catalog of throws as a rising junior in high school. Easily drives the ball to all levels of the field. Played both under center and in the shotgun as a sophomore. Ahead of the curve as a ball-handler and in the quick passing game. Shows good footwork and awareness in the pocket. Capable of creative plays in the face of pressure. Primarily a pass-first quarterback as a sophomore, not running for many yards. Turned in one of the more productive sophomore seasons among top 2024 quarterbacks. The son of 14-year NFL center Dominic Raiola. Also a standout baseball player as a pitcher and catcher.”
Hopefully, Raiola sticks with his Ohio State commitment.
